Nunsense! It’s Habit Forming! A hilarious farce about a convent of Nuns staging a fundraiser to enable them to bury the last four nuns of their order who were accidentally poisoned by the convent cook, Sister Julia (child of God). The Little Sisters of Hoboken (well, what’s left of them) put on this riotous r***e packed with hilarious, show-stopping song and dance numbers, and it always proves to be a crowd favorite.
Rehearsal begin in June
Performances are August 7,8,9,14,15,16
Directed by Amber Burg
Choreography by Stephanie Jones
SISTER MARY REGINA, MOTHER SUPERIOR: Female to play mid 60’s (Range: B3-F5): A feisty Sophie Tucker-type who can't resist the spotlight.
SISTER MARY HUBERT, MISTRESS OF NOVICES: Female to play mid 50’s (Range: G3-F5): The second in command, she is always competing with the Mother Superior.
SISTER ROBERT ANNE: Female to play mid 30’s (Range: G3-D5): A streetwise taught character from Brooklyn. A constant source of aggravation for the Mother Superior.
SISTER MARY AMNESIA: Female to play late 30’s (Range: Db4-C6): This nun lost her memory after a crucifix fell on her head. She is very sweet.
SISTER MARY LEO: Female to play Early/Mid 30’s (Range: G #3-G5): The novice, who has entered the convent with the firm desire to become the first nun ballerina.
